Then it should not matter whether the ClamAV headers are inserted at
the top, or added to the bottom.  The problem with adding them at
the bottom for domainkeys is that the sending host generates a
signature from the e-mail starting at the line just below where the
signature was added.  Inserting the Clamav headers at the top should
still be RFC compliant while not breaking domainkeys.  Also, the patch
I submitted does not change the default behavior of clamav-milter, but
it just adds an option to clamav to change where it adds the headers.
